A Data-Driven Approach For Scheduling Bus Services Subject To Demand Constraints, Brahmanage Janaka Chathuranga Thilakarathna, Thivya Kandappu, Baihua Zheng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Passenger satisfaction is extremely important for the success of a public transportation system. Many studies have shown that passenger satisfaction strongly depends on the time they have to wait at the bus stop (waiting time) to get on a bus. To be specific, user satisfaction drops faster as the waiting time increases. Therefore, service providers want to provide a bus to the waiting passengers within a threshold to keep them satisfied. It is a two-pronged problem: (a) to satisfy more passengers the transport planner may increase the frequency of the buses, and (b) in turn, the increased frequency may impact …

Online Dormitory Reservation System, Adithya Mothe, Koushik Kumar Suragoni, Ramya Vakity

All Capstone Projects

This project is Online Dorms Systems which allows users to book their room in the dorm from anywhere; this is an automated system where the user can search the availability of rooms in the dorm.

The search can be done based on the dates. The rooms that available are come with the status available, it will display all the rooms available as of that particular search date. Once the room has been booked the user can cancel the reservation within 48 hours. And there is concept of user login. As the user creates his own account with his email id, …

An Energy-Efficient And Access Latency Optimized Indexing Scheme For Wireless Data Broadcast, Yuxia Yao, Xueyan Tang, Ee Peng Lim, Aixin Sun

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Data broadcast is an attractive data dissemination method in mobile environments. To improve energy efficiency, existing air indexing schemes for data broadcast have focused on reducing tuning time only, i.e., the duration that a mobile client stays active in data accesses. On the other hand, existing broadcast scheduling schemes have aimed at reducing access latency through nonflat data broadcast to improve responsiveness only. Not much work has addressed the energy efficiency and responsiveness issues concurrently. This paper proposes an energy-efficient indexing scheme called MHash that optimizes tuning time and access latency in an integrated fashion. MHash reduces tuning time by …

Webarc: Website Archival Using A Structured Approach, Ee Peng Lim, Maria Marissa

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Website archival refers to the task of monitoring and storing snapshots of website(s) for future retrieval and analysis. This task is particularly important for websites that have content changing over time with older information constantly overwritten by newer one. In this paper, we propose WEBARC as a set of software tools to allow users to construct a logical structure for a website to be archived. Classifiers are trained to. determine relevant web pages and their categories, and subsequently used in website downloading. The archival schedule can be specified and executed by a scheduler. A website viewer is also developed to …

Tosa: A Near-Optimal Scheduling Algorithm For Multi-Channel Data Broadcast, Baihua Zheng, Xia Xu, Xing Jin, Dik Lun Lee

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Wireless broadcast is very suitable for delivering information to a large user population. In this paper, we concentrate on data allocation methods for multiple broadcast channels. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first allocation model that takes into the consideration of items' access frequencies, items' lengths. and bandwidth of different channels. We first derive the optimal average expected delay for multiple channels for the general case where data access frequencies, data sizes, and channel bandwidths can all be non-uniform. Second, we develop TOSA, a multi-channel allocation method that does not assume a uniform broadcast schedule for data …
